About SIME
The painter and sculptor SIME, born Mladen Simunovic in 1968 in Gorica, Croatia, belongs to a young generation of artists who have long since ceased to think of the question of traditional ties and modernity as opposites. Instead, his sculptures show that the "old" themes of art are far from exhausted for him: He is always able to gain new, refreshingly subjective perspectives from them.
SIME was trained at the Educational Centre for Applied Art and Design (1985-1987) and later studied sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb (1988-1993). He likes to form his sculptural work based on numerous preparatory drawings. A process in which, as it were, what later takes on plastic form in clay, plaster, wood or bronze is gradually "formed" on drawing paper.
His sculptures are characterised particularly by their clear forms and their reduced mode of representation. The artist concentrates entirely on the essential features of his motifs and abstracts their characteristic features. In doing so, the naturalness of the proportions is always preserved, and the sculptures radiate dynamism and aesthetics.
SIME has been living in Munich as a freelance sculptor since 1999 and is a member of the Professional Association of Visual Artists. He has been awarded several art prizes in Croatia and has recently had more exhibitions throughout Germany.

Collective term for all casting processes that ars mundi carries out with the help of specialised art foundries.
Stone Casting
Similar to artificial marble, with the difference that instead of marble powder, the stone to be replicated is used in powder form.
Bonded Bronze (Cold-Cast-Bronze)
Bronze powder is polymer-bonded. Through special polishing and patination techniques, the surface of the cast takes on an appearance similar to that of bronze.
Imitation Wood
In order to guarantee absolute fidelity to the original, an artificially manufactured imitation wood is used as a base material that features typical wood characteristics: density, workability, colour, and surface structure.
Ceramic Mould Casting
Ceramic mould casting usually requires the use of casting clay, which is then fired and optionally glazed. Instead of the usual rubber moulds, plaster moulds are often used in ceramic casting and porcelain production.
Cast Bronze (Lost-Wax-Casting)
For the cast bronze, the thousand-year-old lost-wax technique is used. It's the best, but also the most complex method of producing sculptures.
Term for an art object (sculpture, installation) that, according to the artist’s intention, is produced in multiple copies within a limited and numbered edition.
Multiples enable the "democratization" of art by making the work accessible and affordable for a wider audience.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures made of wood, ivory, or stone are carved directly from the material block, in bronze casting, a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
